Simon Purcell, aged thirty-four years, re Riding at Conshohocken; badly bruised about the back from the fall of a rock. John Lentz, aged sixteen years, residing in Tanker street; thumb cut off by a bur of iron falling on it at Morris & Tasker's foundry. The man who was knocked down by Giucco Mavoretto, at Sixth and South streets, and taken to the hospital, was so inebriated that bis name could not be ascertained. He re ceived injuries about the head. A special meeting of the Devotional Com mittee of tho Young Men's Christian Associa tion was held lout evening at their rooms in Chesnut street, above Twelfth, for the pur pose of adopting plans for tho summer work of the association. After some discussion it was decided that the committee would recom mend the holding of out-door or open-air meetings and the establishment of Bible teachers' cottage prayer meetings, Sunday Schools, and visitation among the poor and neglected of the city. One of the designs in inaugurating these movements is to get church members now uninterested in the dif ferent instrumentalities for good aroused to a sense of their duty as members of tho Church of Christ. The meeting was well attended. The Committee of Councils on Fire and Trusts held a special meeting last evening to consider plans for the reorganization of the Fire Department. The plan for tho redistricting of tho city, allowing the various companies to attend the fires in the districts in which they nro located pnd portions of adjoining districts, adopted recently by a convention of firemen, was, alter some discussion, rejected by tho follow ing vote: Yeas Messrs. Burnell, Marcus, Nickels, and Stiles 4. Nays Messrs. Armstrong, Fareira, Flumly, Sherman, and Iluuua, chairman .". It was then determined to report to Coun cils the box system, by the following vote: Yeas Burnell, Fareira, Flumly, She;iner, Stiles, and Hanna, chairman (!. Nays Armstrong, Marcus, Nickels !5. Under this system a certain number of com panies nearest to the box from which the alarm may be given may attend tho fire. If these should be iusullident to extinguish tha lire, aid may bo procured by summoning a certain number of those next nearest to the lire, and so on. The average number of com panies that under this plan would be neces sarily called upon is about fifteen, about one Lalf of which will be steamers. Domeatto Affair.

Municipal elections were held in Colorado yesterday, and resulted in the success of nearly all the llepublican candidates. Colonel Johnson, Chief of tha Si out Indians, has offered 800 of his braves to the New Dominion Government to put down tiie insurrection. In tho New Dominion Parliament on Monday the Government Baid they had no information of the shooting of Scott in tha lied River territory. President Grant, his Cabinet, and tha Congressional committees will leave Wash ington to-morrow morning to attend tha ob sequies of General Thomas at Troy. Tha Connecticut election has resulted in the choice of English for Governor by a small majority. In both branches of the Legisla ture the Republicans have a majority. The memorial services in honor of the late General Thomas, held in the Hall of tha House of Representatives last evening, were a fitting tribute to the deceased hero. To-day the question of allowing foreign built ships to take out American rogisters will be discussed by the Senate and House Commerce Committees in joint session. Foreign Affairs.

The memorial ser vices in honor of tha late Major-General Thomas were held in the hall of the House of Representatives to-night. Tho galleries were densely crowded, and in the place allowed the diplomatic corps were several foreign minis ters, attaches of legations, and ladies of their respective families, llie gallery opposite tne Speaker's chair was occupied by the Marine Land. The places on tho floor were filled princiDallv bv Representatives and Sonators. together with judges of the District of Co lumbia Courts, and officers of the army, in eluding General Sherman. On one side of the main aisle, fronting the area in front of the Speaker's chair, were President urant, becretanes Fish, Robeson, and Belknap, Attorney-General Hoar, and Postmaster-General Creswell (Secretary Bout well is absent from the city). On the other side of the area were Chief Justice Chase and all the other justices of the United States tirrnreme Court. Tho hall was decorated over tha doorways witjh national flags draped with crapa, and theita was a similar arrangement in the irons r.f (bo gallery immediately in the rear of the l-jn iikfi's (Liiii-, with the addition of a large 1 1: t"gia )i of ('cnoral Thomas. 1 General Cox, Secretary of the Interior, pre hiiU'd, assisted by Vice President Colfax on his rifL;bt, and Speaker Blaine on his left. After a prayer by tha Rev. Dr. Newman the Marine Band played a dirge. Remarks were made by General Cox, who unid they had met to-night to mourn the death of one whom the nation pronounced to be one of its greatest men. By friend and foo he was regarded as a model man, both as a soldier and citizen. His own claim to be here to-night was that he served with General Thomas in several campaigns and was honored with his friendship. He passod ft high eulogium upon the character of the de ceased for bravery, modesty, and stern in tegrity. General McCook, Governor of Colorado, Raid that the presence here to-night of not only the comrades who had served with Gene ral Thomas, but the representatives of the people of the United States who conferred upon him his rank and honors, attest the grief which possessed all hearts, and after paying a tribute to the virtues of the de ceased general, General MoCook read a series of resolutions, concluding as follows: Jlennlvei1, That in the simple bnt massive great iickh, the exact Justice, the entire dovotlon to th Intert'St of Ills country which characterised General Thomas, wo recognize his likeness to him who wai "first In war, first In peace, and first In the hearts of his countrymen." Jirstdred, That his name and memory can never perish from the hearts or his soldiers or his country men, and tho last sad tribute we can pay to him Is to ttma record our love, our admiration, and our reverence. General Sherman said that his mind turned back thirty years ago when life was fresh and now, and in this connection he spoke of their intimacy while in Florida, and then briefly traoed the military career of his deceased comrade, concluding with the remark that his death might be traced to long exposure and the shocks that ever attend the tumults of war, and to the providence of that God who rules all things for the best. Chief Justice Chase next said that he and his associates of the Supreme Court came to join the honored President and Cabinet, and Senators and Representatives, and all of their fellow-citizens, in homage to the memory of the great soldier whom tho nation mourns. He also spoke of him as a private citizen, possessed of singular intelligence and accu racy of information. If he were called upon to name his most distinguishing feature, he would say it was self-abnegation. Perhaps it would be more correct to say absolute unconsciousness of self. His patriotism was profound and sin cere; but it was not tho patriotism which lives upon the lips. Ho was without fear and without reproach. The Arion Society then sang a dirgo. Carl Schurz was introduced as a general of the volunteer army, but now a Senator from Missouri. He said, in speaking of General Thomas, his eulogy was written in millions of hearts before ha died. Tho oath he had taken to defend tho republic and maintain the laws was more potent in his patriotio heart than tho voice of his mother State. From obscurity he rose to fame, but fame did not affect tho glorious simplicity of his char acter. General Garfield said it was his privilege to know General Thomas as his friend; for two years he saw him every day in some of the most stirring scenes of his life. He called attention to the great gift of character and fame he left to his country. First and foremost was the patriotism of tho deceased. Born in Virginia, loving his native State, as we all love our own, his heart full of its tra ditions, and where all he loved was centred; yet, trheu the day of trial came, he never needed to make a choice; he was on the right side; ho was no doubting Thomas. The country needed not to show its wounds bo fore he believed, but when the first threat was made against his country's liberties, he took sides with tho repubke against all ene mies. General Cox said that putting the resolu tions to a vote was merely a matter of form, but it might, nevertheless, be satisfactory to take the question, and he thereupon stated it, and the resolutions were adopted. It was also resolved that a copy should be sent to the widow of General Thomas, and the assem bly separated. MARINE TELEGRAPH. For additional Marine A'twg set Vt Pane.
